| 3D effects have been promised; Mark Shuttleworth, the head of Canonical, said 
| Compiz Fusion would be integrated, barring any last-minute issues that show 
| up in beta testing or upstream.  
| 
| "We have a good set of defaults that create a slick desktop experience. This 
| is, I think, just the beginning and I'm keen to get developers focused on the 
| use of 3D in the desktop so we see a wider innovation pipeline. Till now it 
| has felt very theoretical, we want to move this tech into the mainstream. 
| ATI's open source moves bode well for this in Hardy (the release after 
| 7.10)," he said.

| As some of you know, I gave up on MS Windows a long time ago.  I have a small 
| partition with Vista on it, but I run openSuse Linux more than 90% of the 
| time.  I have also moved into the realm of Composited Desktops.  I had been 
| running Beryl, but it merged back into Compiz earlier into the year and 
| became Compiz Fusion.  A few nights ago openSuse finally released some 
| packages of Compiz Fusion as Compiz 0.5.2 was released.  The Gods were 
| smiling  on me and I had a decent connection, so off I went and got the 
| packages.
